SLIDES AND PHOTOGRAPHS 
SHAKSPERE, HIS LIFE AND WORKS 

So much has been written about Shakspere that it would be 
superfluous to pubhsh in this Hst notes of inforrn.ation about him 
or his writings. While specific descriptions of the pictures listed 
would be convenient for the use of borrowers, they might be depended 
upon too m.uch. The pictures are to be regarded only as a means to 
an end. They should lead to considerable reading and discussion 
and not replace these essential steps in the study of the man and 
his works. 

A very limited bibliography is given for the guidance of those 
who are beginning to select or use publications on Shakspere. Some 
of these books are probably already a part of m.ost school and public 
libraries. If not, the list will be suggestive to those about to make 
additions. 

The celebration this year of the three hundredth anniversary of 
his death is bringing Shakspere very largely into the thought of the 
public. The schools should take full advantage of this general inter- 
est and give a relatively large am.ount of attention not only to the 
plays that are included in the course of study but to current estimates 
of Shakspere's writings and their influence and to the m.any pictorial 
illustrations that are being brought together. If this is done, the 
effects of the general observation of the Shakspere tercentennial 
should be felt in schools and reading circles for som.e years to come. 

Less incidents are known of the life of Shakspere than of many 
other writers, but such facts as have been ascertained serve to show 
the force of his character and the large part he plaj^ed in the life of 
his times. While " the play's the thing," Shakspere is so intimately 
associated with Stratford-on-Avon and London that the student of 
literature and the Elizabethan age of English history m.ay well 
acquire some definite knowledge of Shakspere mem_orials and the 
period in which he lived. 

This collection of slides and photographs was first announced about 
four years ago. Very general use has been m.ade of it by schools and 
other borrowers. In issuing this second edition of this list, a few 
additional illustrations are included. As opportunity is offered, other 
contributions to this study will be procured.

Charles Cattermole. Shakspere Memorial Museum, Stratford-on- 
Avon, Eng. (1910) 

According to tradition, Shakspere was brought before Sir Thomas 
Lucy at Charlecote m.ansion for poaching on his estate. The poaching 
episode is supposed to have occurred when Shakspere was a young 
man and to have been the cause of his leaving Stratford. The picture, 
LSh BI3, was doubtless intended to portray an early escapade of the 
boy. Observe that in the first picture Shakspere is represented as 
having killed a rabbit; in the second, a deer. Deer poaching was a 
man's offense and more serious than that of snaring a hare or a rabbit.
